What does a carpenter do?
Whether you’re planning a major renovation on your home, or you simply want to make things look a bit nicer, hiring a carpenter can help you with many different tasks. Carpenters take on a wide range of work, such as fixing areas of houses and building furniture from scratch.
Carpentry work is generally broken down into two types: rough and finish. Rough carpentry refers to work that doesn’t have an intricate look, as it’s covered up – often by bricks, tiles, or plasterwork. Finish carpentry covers the work that will be on display, so needs to have a nicer finish. Furniture, decking, and window frames all fall into this second category.Â
Decking
Don't know what to do with all that space in your backyard? Hire a carpenter who specialises in building decks. A decking specialist can add an outdoor deck or upgrade an existing one that opens up your outdoor space. This is great if you want to entertain guests or eat outside as a family during the sunny months.Â
Cabinet making
Cabinetmakers are one example of finish carpentry, because of the high level of detail that goes into their end products. Unlike structural work, it’s important that a cabinet looks nice, so this type of carpenter is a lot more focused on fine details. Cabinetmakers often specialise in other forms of furniture making too.Â
Refinishing carpentry
While structural carpentry is concerned with jobs on the large end of the scale, trim or refinishing carpentry looks at the small end. A trim carpenter is the way to go if you want someone to fix up your skirting boards, cornicing, or a similar aspect of your home.
Custom made furniture
A house isn’t a home without a few personal touches, and if you’d rather avoid the cookie-cutter Ikea approach to decorating your property, hiring a carpenter to create custom-made furniture can make you stand out. Whether you want chairs, tables, or a shoe rack, there’s someone nearby who can help.
Joinery
Joinery services encompass the craftsmanship of creating and joining wood in workshops, distinct from on-site carpentry. These services range from bespoke projects to crafting timber buildings, emphasizing precision and passion. Joiners play a crucial role in interior woodwork, window and door production, and specialized construction, offering tailored and quality timber solutions.

Kitchen sink replacement
£500
East Sheen, Greater London
7th Aug 2024
I am looking for someone to replace my kitchen sink and tap. Currently there is a metal sink and draining board which I would like to replace with a ceramic equivalent - see example attached. Happy to either buy the sink and tap and just pay for installation, or buy this / similar looking product from the installer. The current sink has the following measurements: Depth 33.5cm Width 36cm Depth of basin 13cm The sink unit including the draining board has the following measurements: Depth 43.5cm Width 86cm The countertop has a depth of 61cm. Most ceramic sinks I have looked at online have a larger measurement, so it may be that some of the worktop (wood) needs cutting out to allow for this. There is also some water-damaged wood behind the sink which I would like to replace and cover with tiles.

Installing kitchen worktop (laminate)
£130
Mortlake, Greater London, SW14
9th Feb 2021
I have a new, L-shaped laminate worktop that needs to be fitted (two pieces). The worktop already has holes cut for the hob and sink. It also has the mitre joint cut for the attachment at the corner. The joint needs to be moved 70mm as it is off. The existing worktop was already removed and has been put back temporarily so there won't be a need to work on removing it without damaging the tiles behind it. Dimensions: - Piece 1: 1680mm x 600mm - Piece 2: 1950 mm x 600mm - Thickness 40mm (standard)
